TKMS-Canadian Marmen Collaboration: Has Type 212CD Won the CPSP?

Does the TKMS-Canadian Marmen Collaboration Mean the Type 212CD has won the Canadian future submarine competition?

See Fatima Bahtić's NavalToday article TKMS teams up with Canadian manufacturer on Type 212CD submarine segments of December 19, 2025 at https://www.navaltoday.com/2025/12/19/tkms-teams-up-with-canadian-manufacturer-on-type-212cd-submarine-segments/

I think only if South Korea's Hanwha Ocean has been eliminated from Canada's future submarine competition (CPSP) could a Canadian company be permitted by TKMS to have knowledge of highly confidential TKMS submarine design details and manufacturing processes. 

Also TKMS may be benefitting from the "NATO First" policy (eg. described in the UK) shift that may have benefitted Sweden's SAAB in winning the Polish submarine competition against (non-NATO country) South Korea's Hanwha Ocean.
